Drive By book review

       

       The book that I read was Drive By, by Lynne Ewing. This books main character is a kid named Tito. His brother is killed in a drive by, right in front of Tito and his sister Mina. His sister was traumatized.Tito is struggling to find out if his brother was in a gang or not. While he is trying to figure it all out he constantly goes to Big Molly's Diner. The book comes to a surprising end with a cliff hanger.

       I like how this book had good details and had a good storyline. I would have like for the book to be longer and give more details about what happened at the end. I think my favorite part is when he finds out who the killer was and what he does to stop them. I think I can connect this to a movie I watched one time about a kid who died in a drive by.

       I would recommend this if you like mystery or realistic fiction. I would also recommend this if you like seeing a young kid become a hero. I would recommend this book to any kid from ages 10-16. On a scale from one to four I would give this book a three. I think the only reason I would give it a three and not a four is because of the ending and how it ends to fast. Overall this was a good book and I think if you are looking for a quick read.
